It featured discographical research into record labels and series and dates and personnel, but also frequently spread into editorials and opinions, subject discographies, historical and biographical research, and even a long-running comic panel.

A history of the Crocker family, from Thomas Crocker and Rachel Chappell (married 1667 in New London Connecticut), to the author's great grandmother Cynthia Sprague (1787-1884). Jeannette Robinson Murphy was born in Louisville Kentucky in 1865, and died in Haywood County, North Carolina in 1946. I was able to trace her relationship to Lucy Crocker using vital records on Ancestry.org. Jeannette's parents were Norman Robinson (1829-1904) and Leora Bettisen (1840-??).
